Video insights

@bit_wonder's TikTok video "How Does ATP Synthase Spin? 🎧 How does ATP synthase make ATP? In your cells it is a real spinning turbine: 8 protons turn its rotor once, and every turn makes 3 ATP. Protons crowd one side of the inner membrane of your mitochondria and flow back through the machine, riding its 8-tooth rotor like buckets on a water wheel. The off-centre shaft turns inside a head that a side arm holds still, squeezing out one ATP every third of a turn. In 1997 scientists filmed it: fed ATP, its shaft spins a glowing filament backward. Real ones spin far faster than shown, and together they make about your body weight in ATP every day.
